Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Verb prefixes - de and re
Let's solve the task step by step.

The goal is to add the prefix "re-" to each base word to form a new word. The prefix "re-" means "again" or "back," so it often indicates repetition or returning to a previous state.

We’ll go through each one:

---

1. re + appear = reappear
→ "Reappear" means to appear again.
Correct: reappear

2. re + make = remake
→ "Remake" means to make something again, often with changes.
Correct: remake

3. re + count = recount
→ "Recount" means to tell a story again or to count again.
Correct: recount

4. re + play = replay
→ "Replay" means to play something again (like a video or game).
Correct: replay

5. re + place = replace
→ "Replace" means to put something back in its original position or to substitute.
Correct: replace

6. re + cycle = recycle
→ "Recycle" means to process used materials into new products.
Correct: recycle

7. re + take = retake
→ "Retake" means to take something again (e.g., a test).
Correct: retake

8. re + try = retry
→ "Retry" means to try again.
Correct: retry

---

Final Answers:


1. re + appear = reappear
2. re + make = remake
3. re + count = recount
4. re + play = replay
5. re + place = replace
6. re + cycle = recycle
